12 When the activation process is finished, the blue AquaClean light goes on to confirm that the AquaClean
water filter has been activated correctly.

Replacing the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)

After 95 liters of water have flowed through the filter, the filter will cease to work. The AquaClean light
turns orange and starts to flash to remind you to replace the filter. As long as it flashes, you can replace the
filter without having to descale the machine first. If you do not replace the AquaClean water filter, the
orange light will go out eventually. In that case you can still replace the filter but you first need to descale
the machine.
When the orange AquaClean light flashes:
1 Take out the old AquaClean water filter.
2 Install a new filter and activate it as described in chapter 'Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)'.
Replace the AquaClean water filter at least every 3 months, even if the machine does not yet indicate that
replacement is required.

Deactivating the AquaClean reminder

If you do not want to use Philips AquaClean water filters anymore, you can always deactivate the AquaClean
reminders (AquaClean light flashing orange):
1 Press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
2 When the machine is switched off, press and hold the AquaClean icon until the light in this icon goes on.
The start light starts flashing.
3 Tap the AquaClean icon again to deactivate the reminders. The light in the AquaClean icon goes off.
4 Press the start/stop button to confirm your choice.
5 Press the on/off button to switch on the machine again. The AquaClean reminders are now deactivated.
Note: The activation of a new AquaClean filter will automatically re-activate the AquaClean reminders.

Setting the water hardness

We advise you to adjust the water hardness to the water hardness in your region for optimal
performance and a longer lifetime of the machine. This also prevents you from having to descale the
machine too often. The default water hardness setting is 4: hard water.
Use the water hardness test strip supplied in the box to determine the water hardness
in your region:
1 Immerse the water hardness test strip in tap water or hold it under the tap for 1 second (Fig. 45).
2 Wait 1 minute. The number of squares on the test strip that turn red indicate the water hardness (Fig.
46).
Set the machine to the correct water hardness:
1 Press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
2 When the machine is switched off, tap and hold the aroma strength icon until all lights in the icon go on
(Fig. 2).
3 Tap the aroma strength icon 1, 2, 3 or 4 times. The number of lights that are on should be the same as
the number of red squares on the test strip (Fig. 47). When there are no red squares on the test strip (so
all squares are green) please select 1 light.
4 When you have set the correct water hardness, press the start/stop button.
